First time in a world with higher beings, I take it?
Honey, they rarely ever actually tell you anything. They just assume that you'll figure it out and that you'll do it. Whatever 'it' is. It varies from person to person, destiny to destiny. I hate that word Dimension to dimension. How much it screws you over doesn't matter to them as long as things get done they way they want it.
Sometimes you can get away with causing a lot of damage. Other times, you're just stuck no matter what you do. In the end it usually turns out, it's what they wanted in the first
